My thought had more to do with hidden church records and Clyntahn attesting to them being authentic.

I doubt if it will happen that way.


Well, "dad" with that as an opening hymn I don't see how you could do much more than think of this story line...
I have been very strict with my self not to read the spoilers so, I am not sure of your reference but, as I re read I wonder if Clynthan might have a message from Chihiro... the lack of textev to support where Clynthan came from had me thinking that he might be Chihiro waken from cryo-sleep but his ignorance of how Owl is posting the broadsides makes me think I am following a red herring of my own devising.

Your comment about "attesting to them as being authentic" ties into something that has been 'like an itch I cannot scratch' which I tried to address with the question: What speaks to you? The concept of people taking part of a verse of scripture, building a denomination on it and then saying "God is on our side" to a point of religious war. We are truly insignificant in the schema of the universe, and if God does not save us we will soon be shaken off the earth like water off a dogs back with no one to note our passing yet... the prospect that God is real causes some to be puffed up with their own importance till they deny corrective actions... they prop up dead technologies with pipelines and tax breaks while we run our of fresh water and ice caps melt and they confidently claim that God is on their side while they tithe their way to prosperity.

I think the next book should be called "Marching to Zion"
